Though I know the heated debate that entails, I'd just like to hear a few opinions as to how, to me, it seems like digitally produced (electronica music) mixes can be pushed a little more than analog (rock, etc.) produced music. An example would be mixing say a trance or D n' B mix versus say...

Hey guys here's a new mix from the studio, prolly one of my best yet, it's hard rock ballad with some screaming in it. I did some ad lib post production piano to add thickness and dynamics. Lemme know what you guyses think. "Break" by Amherst feat. Ken Luengo on piano...

Well, I decided to indulge more in my knowledge of mastering by browsing the web for any tips. I came across this fairly lengthy but thorough article that breaks down different techniques while not simply persuading an engineer to simply slap on a maximizer, compressor, or limiter for the sake...

Hey guys, just finished up a new song from my band. This is one of our more Tool inspired songs and it was so difficult for me to get the drum tracks right @.@ I don't know how many takes I had to do till I was satisfied lol. Song is called Clash of the Titans Clash of the Titans by...

Hey guys, I've been having this consistent issue with my mixes sound really centered after I finalize it and export for mastering. For example, this recent song I'm doing for a band involves a guitar solo that I have hard panning installed (Like there are two guitarists taking turns playing a...

Hey guys, finally got a recording of my band after such a long haitus. This one is called "Scattered echoes". I think I've had the most trouble with the kick, as I have been for such a while now. I can't ever seem to get it to sit right in the mix without have to bring out so much click...

Hey guys, currently working on a 7 song ep for a local band and they happen to be of the metal/hard core genre. This is a premastered mix that I wanted to get some feedback on. I'm still trying my hand at mastering, but it's a slow process :/. I think the drums may be a lil on the loud...

krk rokit 5 - pair | eBay Since most find the older version of the KRK 5's to have a better sound than the current line, I happened to find this deal on ebay through my email. A very good deal IMO, especially since the newer batches cost at least twice as much for a pair. A good deal for...

Apple 27" iMac Desktop Computer MC511LL/A B&H Photo Video Wasn't sure which forum to post this exactly, so this was my best bet. A very very good deal on a mac computer that is very rare to come by. It comes with a 27" IPS monitor which probably worth the cost of the whole setup alone. Very...

Hey guys, doing an 8 track EP album for a local band and here's a almost complete song that I did some touch up mixing. All it's missin' is the back up vocals and lead guitar part. I was going for more of a black Sabbath feel with the big openess and "big stadium" mood to it. I also did...

I'm looking to buy any used 8" woofer sized active pair monitors. More preferably from brands like Yamaha, KRK, Behringer, M-audio, or anything you can offer. I'm thinking of a max budget of around $350 shipped, which I know can be pretty small to be asking for, but if anyone is willing to...

Hey guys, I've been meanin' to upgrade for a while now. I'm currently working with an Alesis IO26 8 channel preamp/ 1/4 input firewire interface. All going through Cubase LE4. I'm starting to get very very very tired of the constant issues I'm receiving from Cubase and I also want to upgrade...

Well, for lack of better terms just as the title says. Basically I'm trying to achieve the effect that a lot of songs I hear use in songs. What it is is that sound would start from one side of a pan, like for left, then fade or pan to the opposite side. And vice-versa for a certain amount...

This the first song that my recent band has finished tracking and mixing. Still have the issue with converting .wave to mp3, but other than that I think I'm ok with the mix as it is for the time I spent on it. Criticism is welcome, it would do well to help with future mixes...

Hey guys, This is really starting to annoy me. After I finish finalizing my mixes I save it to .wave through Cubase LE4. Well when I convert it to mp3 using GoldWave I get a strange noise that almost sounds like a flanger has been placed into the mix. I was thinking that it may be because I...

Last year I requested to add my own drum tracks to GonzoX's instrumental called "Zoom". It's been on soundclick for a while now but I felt I might as well post it here for any feedback on the mix. I feel it's probably the best mixed song I've ever done. I told him I'd revise the drums later...

Hey guys, So I'm about to throw my Alesis I/O 26 out the window along with cubase with all the issues it's been causing me. So I was thinking about getting a different setup. I want to stick to the interface route since it gets the best quality for the money. But I've also been thinking of...

Hey guys I'm lookin for some good somewhat cheap monitors. But I don't want crap either of course. I was looking along the lines of some a pair of: -KRK Rokit 5 or 6 powered -M-Audio BX5A -Behringer truth -Alesis MKII -Yamaha NS100M My budget is somewhat in the $150-200 so I understand...

Well I was really amped to hear that Linkin Park, one of my most favorite bands of all time is coming out with their new album soon. But what really threw me off was when I found out they're doing a contest where any individual or group can remix or rewrite one of their songs "Catalyst" from...

So I was recording a band consisting of a vocals, guitar, bass, and 4 mics for the drums. Which adds up to about 7 inputs going through my Alesis io 26 firewire. I have the buffer settings set to 512 as a default. And I have the "adjust for recording latency" option on in the vst setup menu...
